How to make Bubble Candles on the stove
- Poke a hole in the middle of the bubble mold with a skewer or needle & then thread the candlewick through. Use skewers to keep wick in place, set on a small plate or in a wide cup (a small plate will make the top ever so slightly flat, the cup makes the most perfect bubbles if you can find one that won’t squish the sides)
- Fill your pouring pot with 5.5 oz of your wax
- Fill a saucepan with approx 2″ of water & on medium heat bring to a low boil with your pouring pot sitting in the water and stirring occasionally.
- Once the wax is completely liquid, take off the heat and add in your fragrance (.25 oz of your chosen scent).
- Carefully pour your wax into the bubble candle mold & let fully cure before removing it from the mold (I like giving it a full 24 hrs)
- Remove carefully from mold, start by pulling the sides from the mold & then roll down
- Trim your wick as needed & BOOM you’ve got an amazing aesthetic candle!

- Fill your microwave-safe bowl or cup (I like using a pyrex measuring cup with a spout) with 5.5 oz of your wax
- Microwave in 30-second intervals until completely melted.
- Once the wax is completely liquid, add in your fragrance (.25 oz of your chosen scent).
- Carefully pour your wax into the bubble candle mold & let fully cure before removing it from the mold (I like giving it a full 24 hrs)
